@WFarahslt Your point about potential misdiagnosis is valid. We must also remember that #DevLangDis is also massively underdiagnosed. We need better tools, skills & research to ensure DLD is accurately diagnosed in all community groups
@WFarahslt 85% of children in the schools where I work are black. Some are taught by white teachers and some by black teachers. The article is making some valid points yet persisting language difficulties that affect learning and inclusion are present in children of all communities.
